"Yes." Lily nodded her head and took a look at her worriedly. She gripped her hand more tightly.
Angela's mood at this time is her deepest experience. Dillon and Lucia did something and finally drove
Tina out of Qiao family. This was what she saw and experienced.
In her previous life, because of Frank and Claire, she died. If God hadn't given her a chance to live
again, she wouldn't have had such a life now.
Marriage, mistress, betrayal, which kind of things she had never experienced before? No, In this life,
she met Eric. Although he was young, he could give her the warmth of the family, and the heart that
was exclusive to her. That was why she fell into the trap and followed him with all her heart, regardless
of the consequences.
In fact, she could take this as a bet. Now, Eric treated her well, but what would happen later? Even she
herself didn't know that there were so many different kinds of people in this irritated society. She just
hoped that he could always keep his original intention.
At the thought of this, Lily turned her head to take a look at Eric, who was driving intently. She was a
little worried, because the back of his hand holding the steering wheel showed the blue veins stood out.
Obviously, he was trying hard to endure the pain.
"I don't want to go home." Looking at the familiar road outside the car, Angela suddenly said, "As long
as there is a place where Richard has appeared, I will not go."
Eric didn't stop the car, but slowed down the speed. Looking at her from the rearview mirror, he asked,
"Mom, where do you want to go now?"
"As long as we don't go back, you can take me anywhere." Angela had lost her goal. Now she only
knew to stay away from anything that was related to Richard.
Eric pulled over. His face was so gloomy.
The atmosphere in the car suddenly became dull. Lily let go of Angela's hand, leaned forward, reached
out her hand and held Eric's hand. She comforted in a soft voice, "Don't think too much. What we
should do now is to calm down and think about what we are going to do next, and what we should do is
not to panic. It is obvious that this mother and son are well prepared."
Eric held her hands in his own instead, took a deep look at her with his black eyes and said, "I should
have let Hailey investigate the whole thing. Otherwise, such a thing would not have happened."
Lily was confused. Before she asked, Angela said excitedly, "You knew their existence long ago?"
In a low voice, Eric answered, "Yes, I know Dale. But as for Ethan, I don't know about him."
What he said was true. He didn't know about Ethan indeed. It was the first time he heard about him.
"Why didn't you tell me about that woman?" Angela unconsciously raised her voice. She looked at Eric
with red eyes, "Eric, do you regard me as your mother? You even keep me in the dark!"
"Mom, I didn't mean to hide it from you. I just..."
"Enough!" She pushed the door open and was about to get off the car. "Now it is you and your father
who work together to hide this from me. I have finally understood, in your eyes, I am an outsider!"
"Mom..."
"Auntie!"
Eric and Lily shouted at the same time. Fortunately, Lily was closer to her and grabbed her hand.
"Aunt, please don't be impulsive. Eric might have his own difficulties."
"Mom, I have my reasons to do so." Eric replied at once, "Do you know why I arranged you and my
father to travel abroad? I arranged you to travel abroad after I knew the existence of Dale. And I
wanted to deal with this matter during this period of time. But they went to see my grandpa early."
His words calmed her down a little. She sat down again and looked at Eric, as if thinking about
something.
After a while, she spoke, "Go back to the Gu family's old house."
"Mom?" Eric glanced at her with a little surprise. He didn't expect that she would suddenly go back to
the old house.
"The Gu family's old house." Her face was much more flat. "I know what I am doing. Don't worry that I
will do something irrational."
What she said worried him more. As far as he knew about her, the quieter she was, the more likely she
would have an accident.
"Mom, how about going to my and girl's house? It's quiet." He suggested.
After saying that, he deliberately glanced at Lily, hoping that she could understand him.
Of course, Lily understood his intention and said to Angela, "Yes, auntie, how about living with us? The
house has just been decorated, you can live there."
Hearing this, Eric looked at her with gratitude. His girl was really sensible.
"Go back to the old house." Angela insisted with determination.
Seeing that she insisted on it, both Eric and Lily looked at each other, their eyes full of worry. But they
could not say anything more.
At last, under the insistence of Angela, Eric drove the car and took them back to the Gu family's old
house.
As the Spring Festival was coming, the Gu family was bustling at the moment. Colorful lanterns were lit
everywhere and every corner was full of the atmosphere of the new year.
However, all of this had nothing to do with their current mood.
The car stopped in front of the gate of the Gu's house. They got off the car at the same time. Lily was
afraid that Angela would do something excessive, so as soon as she got off the car, she walked to her
side and took her arm.
While Eric was in charge of carrying the luggage and walked on the other side of Angela. He also
secretly watched her in fear that she would lose her mind.
Looking at the Gu family with a strong smell of the new year in front of him, Angela couldn't help
smiling ironically.
She took a deep breath quietly and walked inside with a faint smile on her face.
She knew that she was unable to lead a peaceful life after this trip, and she would have a rough time
this year.
"Oh, my God! Angela, you're back!" As soon as they entered the Gu family, they met the last person
they wanted to see, Jade.
She was dressed in mink and put on a heavy makeup. Apparently, she had attended a banquet and
just came back.
She was in a bad mood and met with the woman who was the most disgusting in this family. She
frowned unconsciously, but she had to return politely.
"Yes, I'm back." Angela responded with a smirk.
"Didn't you say that you wouldn't be back until the Spring Festival? Why are you back so early?" Jade
walked up to them and glanced at them without being noticed.
Hearing her words, Angela knew that she just wanted to make a fool of her. Now everyone in the Gu
family knew about the business of Gu family, not to mention Jade. She couldn't wait to see her make a
fool.
"I'll come back in advance to take a rest for two days. It's good. I'm not in a hurry." Angela replied
casually.
"Your son, Eric, is so sensible." While speaking, Jade moved her gaze to Eric, "You couple have
worked so hard, and Eric specially arranged you to travel abroad to make you relax. Unlike us, Frank,
the only thing he cares about is his career. He didn't care about us at all."
Her tone was complaint, but her expression was enough to make people want to slap her.
"Frank is a sensible boy." Angela said casually. At the moment, she had no mood to deal with her at all.
She just wanted to go back to the room to be quiet and thought about how to face the later things.
"Alas, your son, Eric, is much more thoughtful than Frank." "He is so considerate. Oh, right..." She
sighed.
She looked at the door and asked, "Where is Richard? Didn't he come back with you?"
The atmosphere changed as she asked.
"Aunt, are you tired? Do you want to go back and have a rest first?" Lily, who had been silent all this
time, spoke.
"Well, I'm a little tired after a long journey." Angela nodded and said.
Jade was determined to see her joke. How could she let them go so easily? So she directly went to the
point instead of beating around the bush. "Angela, don't be too angry. Men always make mistakes. As
long as they know their mistakes and can correct them, it is good. Richard just made a mistake
accidentally. He didn't expect that he has left a child outside."
"Aunt." "My father didn't make any mistakes. We both know exactly what kind of mistakes he made in
the past. You don't have to explain to us."
"Eric, I'm doing this for your own good." "I'm persuading your mother. I'm afraid that she..."
"We don't need your advice." Eric interrupted her directly, "Don't you know clearly about how Dale and
Ethan appeared? Why did they show up at this critical moment? What's more, it happens to be in time
when my parents are traveling abroad."
"What do you mean by that?" "Did we force them to show up?"
"Well, I didn't say that." Eric sneered, "I just thought they showed up at the same time. As far as I know,
you and uncle are frequently seeing them."
The meaning behind Eric's words was very obvious. Jade was a vain person and she couldn't stand it.
What's more, what he said was true, which made her look more embarrassed.
When Angela and Lily heard his words, they were both surprised. At the same time, they turned to him.
